Package: initramfs-tools
Version: 0.133+deb10u1

To reproduce the issue described in the subject:
 1.) Download a recent debian-netinst.iso (tested with debian-10.3.0-amd64-netinst.iso)
 2.) Run into installation-process
 3.) Let the network-configuration fail
 4.) Continue without network
 5.) Choose encrypted lvm
 6.) Install the base-system only (no mirrors)
 7.) Finish the installation and reboot

After the reboot the system freezes in grubs 'Loading initramfs' screen, because the i915 mode setting driver is missing in the initramfs.
(https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Lenovo_ThinkPad_X230)
One need to explicitly add i915 to /etc/initramfs-tools/modules and rebuild initramfs or simply install plymouth, which manages the same result via its initramfs-hook.

This issue does not occur, if:
 * The disk isn't encrypted => The System jumps directly into the login-terminal without asking for a passphrase
 * Full network-installation is performed, which pulls plymouth by certain dependencies

So I'm closing this as not our bug.
